Edited by Xiao-Fan WangTandem mass spectrometry was applied to tissues from targeted mutant mouse models to explore the collagen substrate specificities of individual members of the prolyl 3-hydroxylase (P3H) gene family. Previous studies revealed that P3h1 preferentially 3-hydroxylates proline at a single site in collagen type I chains, whereas P3h2 is responsible for 3-hydroxylating multiple proline sites in collagen types I, II, IV, and V. In screening for collagen substrate sites for the remaining members of the vertebrate P3H family, P3h3 and Sc65 knock-out mice revealed a common lysine under-hydroxylation effect at helical domain cross-linking sites in skin, bone, tendon, aorta, and cornea. No effect on prolyl 3-hydroxylation was evident on screening the spectrum of known 3-hydroxyproline sites from all major tissue collagen types. However, collagen type I extracted from both The collagen family of proteins has evolved into many different genes and gene translational products each with variably regulated post-translational modifications (1, 2). Even within a single genetic type of collagen, the post-translational quality of the protein is known to be regulated with a high degree of tissue specificity (3, 4). The functional significance of this post-translational variability is still not fully understood, although for fibril-forming collagens the number, placement, and chemistry of covalent intermolecular cross-links seem to be critically important regulators of tissue material properties and function (5-7).In the last decade, new insights on the significance of a relatively rare collagen modification, prolyl 3-hydroxylation, came from the discovery that recessive forms of osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) 2 are caused by biallelic mutations in prolyl 3-hydroxylase 1 (P3H1; Lepre1), CRTAP (Leprel3), or CypB (PPIB) (8). These proteins, which form a P3H1 enzyme complex, act on nascent collagen chains in the ER (9). Mutations in at least 6 further genes that encode either enzymes (e.g. PLOD2 encoding lysyl hydroxylase-2 (LH2) (10)) or chaperones (e.g. FKBP10 encoding FKBP65 (11, 12)), needed for collagen modification, folding, transport, and normal mineralization, have been shown to cause OI variants. We have gained insights on the disease-causing mechanisms by analyzing tissue collagens from OI patients and mouse models of OI. For example, P3H1, CRTAP, and PPIB mutations all cause telopeptide lysine overhydroxylation (5), whereas PLOD2 or FKBP10 mutations cause telopeptide lysine under-hydroxylation (10 -12). A common effect from all these mutations is an altered collagen cross-linking chemistry. These findings suggest an interplay in the ER between the prolyl 3-hydroxylation complex and the lysyl hydroxylation machinery.Human mutations in P3H2 (Leprel1) have been shown to cause the eye disorder high myopia (13-15). Two different P3H2 knock-out mice have so far been generated by separate laboratories, the first was embryonic lethal (16), whereas the second had no obvious phenotype (17).

Abnormal Bone Collagen Cross‐Linking in Osteogenesis Imperfecta/Bruck Syndrome Caused by Compound Heterozygous PLOD2 Mutations

Bruck syndrome (BS) is a congenital disorder characterized by joint flexion contractures, skeletal dysplasia, and increased bone fragility, which overlaps clinically with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI). On a genetic level, BS is caused by biallelic mutations in either FKBP10 or PLOD2 . PLOD2 encodes the lysyl hydroxylase 2 (LH2) enzyme, which is responsible for the hydroxylation of cross‐linking lysine residues in fibrillar collagen telopeptide domains. This modification enables collagen to form chemically stable (permanent) intermolecular cross‐links in the extracellular matrix. Normal bone collagen develops a unique mix of such stable and labile lysyl‐oxidase–mediated cross‐links, which contribute to bone strength, resistance to microdamage, and crack propagation, as well as the ordered deposition of mineral nanocrystals within the fibrillar collagen matrix. Bone from patients with BS caused by biallelic FKBP10 mutations has been shown to have abnormal collagen cross‐linking; however, to date, no direct studies of human bone from BS caused by PLOD2 mutations have been reported. Here the results from a study of a 4‐year‐old boy with BS caused by compound heterozygous mutations in PLOD2 are discussed. Diminished hydroxylation of type I collagen telopeptide lysines but normal hydroxylation at triple‐helical sites was found. Consequently, stable trivalent cross‐links were essentially absent. Instead, allysine aldol dimeric cross‐links dominated as in normal skin collagen. Furthermore, in contrast to the patient's bone collagen, telopeptide lysines in cartilage type II collagen cross‐linked peptides from the patient's urine were normally hydroxylated. These findings shed light on the complex mechanisms that control the unique posttranslational chemistry and cross‐linking of bone collagen, and how, when defective, they can cause brittle bones and related connective tissue problems. © 2020 The Authors.

Bruck syndrome (BS) is a disorder characterized by joint flexion contractures and skeletal dysplasia that shows strong clinical overlap with the brittle bone disease Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI). BS is caused by bi-allelic mutations in either the FKBP10 or the PLOD2 gene. PLOD2 encodes the lysyl hydroxylase 2 (LH2) enzyme, which is responsible for the hydroxylation of lysine residues in fibrillar collagen telopeptides. This hydroxylation directs cross-linking of collagen fibrils in the extracellular matrix, which is necessary to provide stability and tensile integrity to the collagen fibrils. To further elucidate the function of LH2 in vertebrate skeletal development, we created a zebrafish model harboring a homozygous plod2 nonsense mutation resulting in reduced telopeptide hydroxylation and cross-linking of bone type I collagen. Adult plod2 mutants present with a shortened body axis and severe skeletal abnormalities with evidence of bone fragility and fractures. The vertebral column of plod2 mutants is short and scoliotic with compressed vertebrae that show excessive bone formation at the vertebral end plates, and increased tissue mineral density in the vertebral centra. The muscle fibers of mutant zebrafish have a reduced diameter near the horizontal myoseptum. The endomysium, a layer of connective tissue ensheathing the individual muscle fibers, is enlarged. Transmission electron microscopy of mutant vertebral bone shows type I collagen fibrils that are less organized with loss of the typical plywood-like structure. In conclusion, plod2 mutant zebrafish show molecular and tissue abnormalities in the musculoskeletal system that are concordant with clinical findings in BS patients. Therefore, the plod2 zebrafish mutant is a promising model for the elucidation of the underlying pathogenetic mechanisms leading to BS and the development of novel therapeutic avenues in this syndrome.
